Yalls track is already open? Good looking #s Martin, I have a green t/a that I picked up for dead. Broke read end and new wiring harness and its running. I'll be following your thread closely, similar to what I want to do and close by also. Already added ls6 intake, 1 3/4 pacesetter, and rebuilt the rear end with 3.90 gears and moser axles with a ta girdle.
Our track doesn't open till mid March.
